Loving the Hawaii Lifestyle!

When we first started searching for adventure and a lifestyle that included an endless blue ocean, swaying palm trees, wide open spaces and buying property in Hawaii, we did not know where to start.

When we moved to Kailua-Kona full time in 2010 we wanted to share our experiences with others to help them avoid the mistakes we made. Our first jaunt to the island was for one year, 2005-2006, when we purchased and renovated a vacation condo in Keauhou with our two young children. When we first started our home buying journey, we did not have the luxury of digital advice about choosing a knowledgable and trusted Realtor, buying real estate, moving to Hawaii or acclimating to the island, the culture and the lifestyle!

Our goal is to help you navigate the whole experience with trusted advisors and resources and the kind of assistance that we wish someone would have given us when we made the move that changed our lives.

ULTRA-Connectors!

We are connectors and REALTORS. We started offering moving and lifestyle advice with our Kona Newbies group in 2013 and it expanded into a “How to Move to Kona” book, then a “Buying Real Estate in Hawaii” guide and then a “Moving to Hawaii” Facebook group and then we both earned our real estate licenses to help people make the experience of buying a home in Hawaii a tropical breeze!

We also have a group of amazing referral partners around the island so you get a neighborhood expert, which is a key element of moving to the island successfully. We hope you will allow us to help you with our connections, wisdom and kokua!
